Nightwing has always been a character I enjoyed. He reminded me of a more serious Peter Parker, and Peter is my favorite hero of all time. So I never really read much of his solo adventure. I did read Black Mirror, in which Nightwing becomes Batman after Bruce died, and LOVED it. Then I jumped on Grayson and did NOT like it much at all. So saw that they were releasing Nightwing comics in a big format and it goes back to the 90's (maybe 80's?) and I said "Why not!" and grabbed this title. Was it worth it? Let's find out.

What I liked: I love dick. No...you dirty minds out there. I'm talking about Dick Grayson! He's fun, he's serious when needs be, his fighting style is similar to Batman but so very different. I also love his interaction with people because he goes along with whomever he's with. I really dug the storyline here. The first arc is based on Nightwing's younger days and his parents killers. This story is pretty good but the art is pretty bad. The second arc has better art and a interesting "mystery" bad guy taking over. It's actually more about Bludhaven and it's terribleness that makes this story different. Also Robin and Nightwing teamup <3

What I didn't like: The story can be a bit messy. Sometimes a little too hard to follow. Also everyone is like super evil in Bludhaven to the point of comedic. Oh and the fight scenes can be REALLY hard to follow sometimes. Also that haircut in the first 5 issues is a no-no. Just a big fat NO NO!

Overall this was a lot of fun. It really lands between a 3 and a 3.5. It's a little uneven and feels like it's finding it's ground. I think future volumes will capture that. So off I go to order more volumes.
